A golden lion?!

The legendary pirate's abilities and swordsmanship were all inherited by this man.

No way...

"What golden lion and yellow monkey? What are you talking about? I don't know anything about them." Kuro shook his head decisively.

"Then what is this?!" Izo roared, "You're not a pure swordsman, and you're not qualified to use Autumn Water!"

"Who says I'm not qualified?"

Kuro looked at Izo and said, "Let me tell you, I'm actually from Wano Country too. If you don't believe me, I'll give you proof. There are ninjas in Wano Country, right? And ninjas know ninjutsu, right? What I just did was ninjutsu. I'll show you now."

He casually made a flourish, then shouted, "Ninja Art: Rain Tiger Freedom Technique!"

Heavy rain fell from the sky.

Even though there were no dark clouds, rain poured down and fell on everyone.

"Ninja Art: Earth Spike Technique!"

Kuro casually made another gesture, and the ground around the squad members, including Whitebeard, rose up, forming sharp earth spikes that pierced towards them.

But this level...

All the team captains worked together to break the formed earth spikes.

But this miraculous scene was quite surprising.

Vista exclaimed in surprise, "Does Wano Country have such ninja techniques? That's really impressive!"

"How is that possible!"

He replied with a sentence, but he was still somewhat uncertain.

Although he and his younger brother performed on the streets when he was young, it didn't last long. Later, he followed that adult and spent even less time in Wano Country. There are indeed some secrets of Wano Country that he doesn't know.

Is there really such a miraculous ninjutsu?

"Ninja Art: Rain of Pear Blossoms Technique!"

The metal spikes and fragments that had just been knocked to the ground by Whitebeard rose up together, mixing with the rain to form an iron curtain that rushed towards the crowd.

This move made everyone's faces turn serious.

Jozu and Marco stood in front of Whitebeard, one above the other, while the others drew their weapons, preparing to defend against the dense iron curtain.

This brought a smile to Kuro's lips; as long as he didn't care how the rain came down, it was fine.

Regardless of the type of water, simply being splashed with it will not cause a feeling of powerlessness, nor will it prevent a person from actively using their abilities.

But once it's wrapped up...

"Lion's Might - Imperial Palace Scroll!" Kuro clenched his fist.

The rain in the sky suddenly transformed into water masses resembling lion heads, enveloping all seventeen people.

It's alright if you're not a superhuman, but you're just a little lost when you're suddenly submerged in water.

Marco and Jozu, along with other Devil Fruit users, were suddenly enveloped by the seawater. Marco, who had just transformed into a phoenix, instantly reverted to human form, while Jozu, whose body was shimmering with diamonds, lost his diamonds and was unable to use his proud defensive abilities.

Whitebeard was also enveloped by the largest mass of seawater under this attack.

The Iron Curtain crashed down.

Success!

laugh!

Whitebeard swung his sword lightly, easily breaking the seawater mass. He glanced at the iron curtain descending from the sky and grinned maliciously, "Kid, well done."

He clenched his left fist and punched into the air.

Boom!!!

At that moment, the water sphere and the iron curtain collapsed completely due to the violent vibration of the air. The water sphere exploded and flowed out under everyone's feet, while the iron curtain fell and turned into fine metal fragments.

The sky suddenly became clear.

And Kuro...

It was flying wildly into the distance, and in everyone's eyes it was almost just an outline.

He was sick, which is why he fought against the entire Yonko crew.

You think I'm going to hit you?

No, actually this is my escape route!

That's when we succeeded!
